Fundamentals of Plein Air Painting with John Clayton
June 25-29, 9:30-12:30pm, $325

This workshop is designed for those who have always wanted to paint as well as those who want to learn more about painting. You’ll be encouraged to give yourself permission to try.

We’ll cover composition, perspective and values outdoors and in the studio. John demonstrates creating a simple painting before you create one or two studies to learn the landscape and still life, using a palette knife. By organizing the shapes in color and limiting the palette, simple paintings can be created narrowing down the endless details and making the overall experience fun and enjoyable.
